If the apocalypse comes, beep me! @cyrenn - Tumblr Blog

I decided to repaint the “La Bandera” card from my queer version of the traditional Mexican game of Lotería as the POC Pride flag. Previously, it had been the standard rainbow flag. I wanted to highlight the struggles and achievements of POC queer folks in this painting, especially now, in light of current tragedies and protests (and it also feels appropriate to a Mexican game!). I have not been posting to social media for a week or so, other than to share the work of black artists, because I did not want to distract from black voices. But I want to do something to help, so I decided to offer all money from the sale of this painting to the NAACP. The money from all prints of it purchased on Etsy will be donated. Also, I am offering the original in a sort of auction, and the money will be given to the NAACP as well. I am offering it for a starting “bid” of 200 USD. Whoever offers me most will get it, and i will donate the money to the NAACP right away. Just send me a private message at my instagram account @felixdeon and I’ll post it for you! So far it is 400 USD. To find the print, look up “theartoffelixdeon” on etsy, or click on the link Oh, and the original painting measures 5.5 x 7.25 inches

Can’t say it enough how good and important it is to see old trans people.

It’s hard to believe you have a future when all you see are young trans people.

It’s difficult for others to believe it is not a ‘trend’ or a ‘youth only’ thing when all you see are young trans people.

It is SO important to see older Trans people - not just for the Trans community, but for everyone to see. It isn’t a fad or a new ‘trendy’ thing to do. It is how people live their lives. Trans people absolutely have a future, and it is a magnificent one.

It is ESPECIALLY important, though, for Trans Youth of color to see Older Trans people of color, because the highest suicide rate in youth is in Trans people of color. The average lifespan is in their 30′s.

Don’t give up. Know that there is a future waiting for you and that your journey does NOT have to be a short one. <3

And the world needs to know that this isn’t a phase. People don’t just STOP being Trans at some magical age. And we’re all just trying to live like everyone else.

“ You don't have to hide your love away and

I know that I'm gonna make mistakes, but

Leaning on somebody isn't easy

I'll do what I can to make you see that

This is not a temporary love...

Now your heart is in my hands, I won't give it up “

HOW TO DONATE TO BLM WHEN YOU HAVE NO MONEY! a black woman named zoe amira posted a video on youtube. this video is an hour long and filled with art and music from black creators. 100% of the ad revenue from the video will be dispersed between various blm organizations, including bail-out funds for protesters. it has a ton of ads, and in result will rack up a ton of revenue. turn off your adblocker and do not skip ads. between each time watch 3-5 other videos (mix it up) before restarting. this will ensure you aren’t marked as spam by youtube. don’t mute the video itself. and let. it. play.
